The Original

Organic Coconut Milk

A staple of Thai, Indian and Caribbean cuisines, Native Forest Classic Organic Coconut Milk imparts rich and creamy goodness to wonderful regional dishes. In Thailand, devoted farmers are proud to have achieved organic certification of their traditional coconut crop. While organic coconuts are generally smaller than their conventional counterparts, organically managed trees are more robust and drought-resistant, and their soil is more rich and moisture retentive. The first pressing of the fresh organic coconut meat yields an oil-rich extract that is mixed only with filtered water and a tiny amount (less than 1%) of guar gum from the seeds of the guar plant. The result is Native Forest Classic Organic Coconut Milk, a delicious ingredient in soups, curries, sauces, desserts, and beverages. It may also replace dairy milk or cream in some of your favorite American recipes with excellent results.

Important information

Store at room temperature and shake well before using. Once opened, refrigerate and use within 4 days. Product may to separate when its temperature falls below 80 degrees F. This makes the milk appear curdled as the coconut fat separates from the liquid. Such separation is harmless and easily remedied by placing the can of coconut milk in hot water for 15 minutes and then stirring the contents thoroughly.

Update:I've discovered that most brands, organic or not, have guar gum, so I did what I've been avoiding for a long time: I made my own coconut milk which tastes divine and anything I put it in tastes much better than when I used to use canned. The canned milk is slimy and grayish, and has a foul taste compared to homemade. It's worth the time and effort (which is minimal) and it's easy to find instructions online. I hope this encourages someone who was thinking about homemade to try it.

************************************************This coconut milk has guar gum in it, which gives it a weird, too-thick, almost greasy consistency. Why start with an *organic* coconut milk and then add guar gum to it??? I just don't get it.

Very nice product. I'm a newbie to coconut milk so take this in mind. Unable to get a more concentrated part (meaty) off the top to whip into a cream (as in some recipes that say it can be whipped or frothed). Other than that it seems a quality product. Would've appreciated a BPA free can for storing since it was a bulk purchase . But this may not even be available (I only know it exists because my organic pumpkin for pets comes in BPA free cans). Yes, I'd recommend this to others.

After reading the other reviews, I believed that all the bad ones were written a couple years ago due to an issue with the supply chain. the ones I received the other day WERE from Thailand, and the quality was great! I've only used one can but it was about 50% fat, which made my thai red curry delicious! Buying like this saves me about 1$ per can versus buying at my nearby store, since I used one a week it definitely saves me money, as was convenient with my prime membership.

I've tried several brands of canned coconut milk and this is by far my favorite. It works great in recipes and has a smooth consistency. It's also organic, GMO free, and supposedly BPA free. The price is good by the case since it costs more at Whole Foods, which is the only other place I have found this brand. Every single can in my case was dented on arrival. I can still use them but I contacted Amazon to let them know. They sent me another case at no charge (overnight shipping!) with no questions asked. Now that's service! I will not dock any stars because of the dented cans since the situation was resolved and this is still a wonderful product.

Great product for making my Thai curry's. I even use it for Indian curry is in place of cream. As the perfect amount of cream and us and a nice depth of flavor. I bet it would taste good and smoothies also.

I've been using this product for quite a while now and have been very satisfied, but have received a crummy batch for my last shipment! I was in the process of moving, so, didn't get a chance to use it until about a week ago. It is "runny" - very thin and has very little solids in it. Unfortunately, it's too late for me to return it.

I am disappointed because this coconut milk, doesn't smell or taste like coconut. I had been making my own coconut milk from unsweetened coconut flakes. which always smells and tastes amazing, but it is a lot of work, so I hoped this would be a good substitute. This is not a suitable substitute because it does not provide a nice coconut aroma or taste.
